Audience
As seen on TV is a real thing. As seen on Instagram is not a real thing. Five bucks gets me on Instagram. Five bucks does not get me on TV. The barrier to entry was higher — people thought this is legit.

"As Seen on TV" Trust Signal Can't Be Faked for $5 — Barrier to Entry Creates Credibility

Ryan Beck identified a key difference between broadcast and digital advertising: the high cost and gatekeeping of TV creates an implicit trust signal that cheap digital cannot replicate. For a faith app targeting audiences where trust is everything, that broadcast credibility was worth a premium. Post-IDFA, this logic has become even more relevant — as digital attribution degrades, brand-building channels with inherent trust value become more defensible investments.

Product
Building on a platform is easier — you don't have to build the community around it. You can kind of cannibalize part of it and try to solve a sub-issue… Notion already had a huge community, people were really fans of the product — they had like a huge subreddit, tons of Facebook groups.

Build on a platform with an existing fanbase — cannibalize their community instead of creating yours

Picking an existing platform with a passionate user base means you inherit their community instead of building one from scratch. Solving a sub-issue inside that ecosystem lets you ride attention from a hungry crowd already organised in subreddits and Facebook groups. Platform risk is real, but the distribution head start is worth it.

There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
